IR systems capable of locating warm objects within structures have been
available for a long time. They are routinely used for search and rescue
in collapsed building. Resolution is low. they could not be used to see
anything much beyond a warm blob through rubble.
There are purported to be devices using ultra wideband RF and microwave
frequencies and millimeter wave active or passive devices to do
this. Resolution of the microwave devices should be even lower than the IR
and perhaps suitable only for determining occupant location, for example
prior to breaking down the door during a SWAT raid. Millimeter waves are
emitted by warm bodies, such as own own, and can be used to passively see
thorough clothing. Not sure if passive devices would work through walls
due to attenuation, but active devices probably could.
